The rules say that you can claim an unclaimed route if no one else has claimed it, and if it isn't parallel to a claimed route in a 2/3 player game. Some boards have additional restrictions, such as tunnels might require additional cards, and ferries require one or more locomotives. As far as I know these are the rules for claiming routes. However I regularly am denied a route (i.e. the two cities turn red when I attempt to claim it) and have no idea why. I took a screenshot from the last time when it happened:http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=133479 897

Why can't I lay a route between Neuchatel and Bern?

You can't claim that route because it's a Red track and you only have one red card in your hand...in the Switzerland map, Locomotive cards can only be used for Tunnel Routes. So you have to draw a second red card before you can take that track.
